Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Since a hearing disability is an invisible impairment, it's difficult for hearing-impaired persons to get support from others, and there are many cases where they encounter threatening situations and feel uncomfortable and discouraged. We have focused attention on the problem and conducted studies aiming at developing products that would improve the circumstances of people with hearing difficulties, based on our business creed 'A corporation in step with the world' and 'A corporation needed by society'. Here, we report the status of the studies and the activity.
